Mine have eschewed their perfectly good nextboxes, four of them, to lay IN THEIR FEEDER. We have redneck chicken feeders (kitty litter boxes with flower pot trays), but sheesh.
We had a rooster, banty, when I was growing up that would perch up on a fence post, start crowing, fall asleep for a second right as he was really hitting the high point, his head would drop over a bit and then all of a sudden he'd jerk his head back up and look around funny before jumping back down. He never did get a full crow out for the 6 years we had him.
mine started laying in the beding bag! lol I be all like no eggs today! and then there all of them were in the bag! lol Chicken Girl
I got y'all beat! Several of our girls have decided, periodically, that the area under the table saw is a good place to hide eggs. Nice fresh powdery sawdust, hidden from view for the most part, private and cozy. What could be better?? And yeah, I got PROOF!! More proof... Ya think maybe this is a popular place? Hey! It looks like a nest box to them I guess! Oh, and in case anybody is trying to count beaks in that last pic..there are three girls inside and one more waiting for her turn outside!
